yeh im preparing myself for a deep dive hahah

#

thankyou ! yours looks so gorgeous haha ! im very excited, havnt had a good keyboard since my old year of the horse steel ducky, and this wooting is a whole nother level due too all the capabilities not just form factor and latency like moving to the ducky.

#

i was quite upset i hadnt researched to see that aftermarket caps were the go, but id seen like the xray or ghost will watching cs, like the whole keyboard lighting almost lighting up not just the caps ? But ended up getting the black alloy as it was all they had in stock and i wanted to purchase asap to help with the wait with shipping (also 70aud shipping and i forgot the wrist rest haha)

#

but yeh paying the extra 100 for the metal seemed very worthwhile for the kind of customising i will want to do, and ended up being only option in stock and the wait was long enough so to get it in asap i made myself upgrade, which i wanted to anyway just needed a nudge haha

craggy apex
#

well what i will say is that this is definetly worth the wait

#

im coming from a cheap 30ish $ aliexpress board with blue switches (ew)

#

and even bone stock

#

the board blew me away

grim ravine
#

oh damn big big upgrade then, happy for you mate !

#

so worth the wait i can tell already, just hope there no issues with 80he in particular i didnt know about, saupport is good im sure though? what are must do/advisable things to do when setting up ?

craggy apex
#

support is great and very understanding from what ive experienced. They are quite backed up due to numbers and holiday seasons but once they get to you they really do deliver

#

what i would do once you get the board is just to check ur happy with the sound first off

#

some people arent a fun of the sound of the spacebar cause it has a tiny bit of ping with the case but i personally like it

grim ravine
#

yeh honestly i think the sound will be pleasing no matter, dont have to like lube anything or do anything with software ?

#

i get what you mean but, and the sound be influenced by even the case material etc not just switches and stabilizers hey ?

craggy apex
#

ive ordered lube but the lekkers sounded and felt pretty decent right out of the box

#

software wise i would check all the keys work

#

then put rgb up to 100% make sure all your led's are fine and if they arent the warranty covers it

grim ravine
#

awesome i was worried about that, and yep yep, noted for sure

#

yeh good advice definately will thanks

craggy apex
#

i also did a test on the gamepad feature cause i also play some racing games once in a while so you can test that as well make sure

#

works great too

#

what did you do there sorry ?

craggy apex
#

ive setup a profile for my racing games and bound it to my keyboard

grim ravine
#

i assumed you meant the arrow keys or something

#

oh so its like pickng it up as a virtual xbox controller ?

#

hmm right

craggy apex
#

yeah not a lot of people talk about this feature on youtube but i think its great

grim ravine
#

thats super interesting man

#

i also used to play xbox and some games i cant play without controller

#

well can but prefer controller

#

so this is interesting

#

cool af man !

craggy apex
#

yeah i really like the board you really get what you pay for

#

ive had 0 issues with the software on board whatsover

grim ravine
#

oh definately !

#

and that is awsome too hear

#

was lil worried bout the 80 cos its new is not ?

#

seen a couple whingers

#

but majority is all g id say

#

im so fucking excited nowwwww ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!

craggy apex
#

yeah it is still a preorder after all since the demand is so high they cant make enough to keep in stock like the 60he

#

but most of the complaints are more nitpicks than anything

#

like sound and 'case quality'

grim ravine
#

no mine was ordered and shipped

craggy apex
#

and obviously the price but thats more of a personal factor X)

craggy apex
grim ravine
#

both of those are personal hey

#

yeh

craggy apex
#

wow you got really lucky then X)

grim ravine
#

craggy apex
#

#

ahha its fine i have a spare one from office but ill get it when i get accesories when i decide after using abit

#

comfy but ? looks like it

#

but yeh it was 70 aud shipping

#

for me so i was really considering the lube and other shit so i didnt have to

#

but yeh seen it, its like silicone is it or ?

craggy apex
#

ye its very smooth but firm

#

and it puts your hands in just the right spot for typing easy to clean too

grim ravine
#

yeh awesome, iill get one for sure eventually

#

with a diff color cable or some keycaps oer someishh

craggy apex
#

sounds great

#

i was thinking of getting a coiled cable but then i saw those custom badges and needed one bad

grim ravine
#

i assumed they came with a coiled cable no ?

#

and didnt see the custom badges either

craggy apex
#

it comes with braided cable not a coiled one sadly

grim ravine
#

oh shit my bad

#

i assumed the coil was standard to wooting im keyboard noob
